Political Action

This is an 11.0101(10)(b)(1) communication with WEAC members

The Gubernatorial Primary is Tuesday, August 14, 2018

What is your plan for voting?

Offices on this PARTISAN primary ballot are Governor, U.S. Senator, U.S. Representative, odd-numbered Wisconsin State Senate seats, and all Wisconsin Assembly seats.

How the primary works

A
primary election is an election in which registered voters select a candidate that they believe should be a political party's candidate for elected office to run in the general election. They are also used to choose convention delegates and party leaders. Primaries are state-level and local-level elections that take place prior to a general election.
Wisconsin utilizes an open primary system; registered voters do not have to be members of a party to vote in that party's primary.

Electors may vote for candidates of only one political party. Select a political party ballot. On the selected ballot, vote for the candidates of your choice by placing a mark in the space designated next to the candidate's name. Or, write in the name of a person for whom you desire to vote. If you vote for candidates of more than one party, no votes will be counted.
